The temp workers made as little as $9 an hour, longtime Boeing engineers told Bloomberg in a new report.

Amazon operates its own fleet of jets to deliver packages around the world and get them to customers quicker. It announced on Tuesday that it is expanding its number of planes, and aims to have 70 by 2021 as part of its bid to complete its own deliveries so it can deliver products to customers in just one day.

Air travel accounts for 2%-3% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Are electric engines an answer?

Five years ago, the flight vanished into the Indian Ocean. Officials on land know more about why than they dare to say.

Faced with growing calls for action on the climate crisis, aerospace companies gathering for the Paris air show next week are turning their thoughts to a future run on electricity rather than fossil fuels. The scale of the challenge is considerable. The target for net zero carbon emissions by 2050, recommended by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and embraced by the UK this week, coincides with the expectation that the number of flights will double in the next 20 years.

Blending biofuels and kerosene to create greener jet fuel has shown promising results in test flights, but more work needs to be done to ensure biofuels burn cleanly and can be produced in a large-scale, low-cost way, says Dr Chong Cheng Tung, associate professor at the China-UK Low Carbon College of Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China.

Just when the smallest jet should have been replaced with a new model, the company fell into tight-fisted hands—with fatal consequences. By Clive Irving.

The flight is among the most significant elements when it pertains to contamination. It is thought about to be the most damaging taking a trip alternative and in spite of different claims to be env…

Stratolaunch Systems Corporation, the space company founded by late billionaire and Microsoft Corp co-founder Paul Allen, is closing operations, cutting short ambitious plans to challenge traditional aerospace companies in a new “space race,” four people familiar with the matter said on Friday.

No one at the Pentagon is saying that the objects are extraterrestrial, but the Navy has issued new classified guidance for reporting unexplained aerial phenomena.

Automation has made planes safer and more efficient, but the crashes of two Boeing 737 Max jets is leading some to wonder if there is a dangerous flip side. While advanced autopilots and computers are now considered an integral part of any modern jetliner, many pilots worry that the systems are detracting from developing and maintaining their own abilities.

The US Air Force hopes that the XQ58-A Valkyrie drone wingman might someday accompany the F-35 and a new version of the F-15 fighter jet, according to Defense News. The aircraft is designed to fill a role known as “loyal wingman” — imagined as a low-cost platform that would be controlled by a parent aircraft to accomplish a variety of tasks, such as flying ahead to scout out terrain, or absorb enemy fire in the event that they’re attacked.

Turning off trim control software in training wouldn't give realistic results – report

Airlines have increasingly settled on a boarding order driven by social stratification.

Navy F-18 fighter jets have encountered Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon — once commonly referred to as UFOs — off the East Coast of the United States.

Radios that sell for $600 can spoof signals planes use to find runways.

Commercial operations in Rwanda prove the company can deliver emergency blood packs in minutes, rather than hours


Weeks after the first fatal crash of the 737 Max, pilots from American Airlines pressed Boeing executives to work urgently on a fix. In a closed-door meeting, they even argued that Boeing should push authorities to take an emergency measure that would likely result in the grounding of the Max. The Boeing executives resisted. They didn’t want to rush out a fix, and said they expected pilots to be able to handle problems.

NASA-funded research is investigating the possibility of developing all-electric airliners that produce no greenhouse gas emissions. The project, led by scientists at the University of Illinois, is exploring the potential of liquid hydrogen fuel cells as an environmentally friendly power source. By using cooled, condensed liquid hydrogen instead of hydrogen gas, clean power can be generated without needing heavy pressurised storage tanks.

A Myanmar pilot safely landed a passenger jet without its front wheels on Sunday, after landing gear on the Myanmar National Airlines plane failed to deploy, the airline and an official said. It was the second aviation incident in Myanmar this week, after a Biman Bangladesh Airlines plane skidded off the runway during strong wind in Yangon on Wednesday, injuring at least 17 of those on board.
